1 Exam #3 Study Guide Chapter 5 The Feeling Mind: Motivation and Emotion I. Pain i. Damage to tissue causes a) release of special chemicals b) stimulates pain receptors ii. Pain receptors iii. Pain Pathway iv. Two regions of cortex a) Somatosensory area b) Frontal Lobes v. Pain reduction a) Pressure stimulation b) CNS Descending inhibition from Peri Aquaductal Grey (PAG) vi. Gate Control Theory of Pain Control II. Motivation i. Maslow s Hierarchy of Needs a) Physiological Needs b) Safety Needs c) Belongingness and Love Needs d) Esteem Needs e) Self Actualization Needs ii. Homeostasis a) Body attempts to maintain relatively constant internal environment. b) Homeostasis depends upon: internal sensor to provide feedback, a comparator and an adjustment mechanism. III. Eating and Obesity i. Weight is a function of? ii. What initiates eating? iii. Body Chemistry and the Brain a) Glucose b) Hypothalamus iv. What stops eating (Satiety)? v. Lesions of Hypothalamus a) VMH Syndrome b) LH Syndrome c) What do these syndromes suggest? vi. Set point theory of weight regulation a) Set point and metabolism b) Set point and environment

2 vii. Eating and Obesity a) Eating b) Expenditure c) Lack of activity d) Genetic programming/genetic factor e) Drugs viii. Conventional Intuitions vs. Set point Theory a) Conventional b) Set point ix. Eating and Eating Disorders a) Anorexia Severity Diagnostic Criteria Causes (Bio, Psycho, Social) b) Bulimia Binging Compensatory Behaviors Frequency of behaviors/binging Self evaluation c) Epidemiology of Eating Disorders Women Men IV. Emotion i. Mood ii. Affect/emotion a) Subjective experiences b) Internal physiological responses Role of physiological arousal in emotion Intuitive View James Lange Theory Problems with James Lange Theory (Cannon) Cannon Bard Theory c) Belief or cognitive appraisal Absence of cognition? Animals Humans Zajonc/LeDoux: emotion is primary Lazarus/Schacter: cognition precedes o Cognition Arousal Theory o Schacter s Infamous Study o Excitation transfer or Spillover effect Cognition in depression o Distorted cognitions o Types of Cognitive distortions/errors

3 o Changing cognitions changes emotions o Sadder but Wiser phenomenon o Alloy and Abramson Sadder but Wiser Study d) Facial Expression Eckman: facial expressions are key Expressed emotion Duchene vs. polite unfelt smile Facial feedback hypothesis o Definition o Golf tee experiment Ekman s Facial Feedback Theory Facial Feedback and Botox e) Reaction (Behavior) V. Lie Detector (take home message slide only) a. There is no unequivocal lie response b. Traditional Polygraphy, which focuses on emotional reactions, suffers from an unacceptably high false positive rate (innocent folks look guilty) c. Assessing recognition may prove more accurate, but possibly less widely applicable d. Polygraphs are useful for eliciting admissions and confessions VI. Cognition and Emotion I. Cognitions in depression II. Cognitive distortions a. Overgeneralization b. Selective abstraction c. Magnification & minimization d. All or nothing thinking III. Therapy IV. Sadder but Wiser phenomenon
